A Great Story

Rating: 8/10 (5 May 2002)

The legend of 1900 is a film i defy anybody not to like. It is a moving film that has you hypnotised by it's beauty and charm and leaves you wanting for more. Tim Roth stars as a young man who was born on a cruise liner and is a musical genius, the problem is he cannot leave the ship for reason's that we try to learn to understand and ultimately are his downfall. The man who tries to get him to leave and is his best friend is played by Pruiit Taylor Vince and he , for me, is the star of the film. I have critisised Vince before when i did a review of Nurse Betty but in this ,he is the star , even above Roth. Although this film is 2 hours long it flies by and in my opinion could even do with a little longer. This is a gem and should not be missed. 8 out of 10.
